Cherry, cranberry, raspberry, pomegranate, hint of mushroom, slight cedar, violet, pepper. Taste great at this your age.

Always expect something special when open a Littorai with age. Held up well, showed dark fruit, dried blueberry and cherry coke. More subtle and secondary flavors now and could compete with any premier cru burgundy.

Aristocratic for a 15 year old American Pinot. Has all the hallmarks of Savoy: lush bing cherry, sandalwood, licorice root, black tea leaf and forest floor. Light tannins falling out. The core of the color totally remained intact with just a ring of brown near the edge. Seems in a near perfect place at the moment

Late night goodness. Still a baby. Better after an hour in the decanter. So, so good after that.

Much softer than the #leslarmes #cuvee with med intensity and a fragrant nose. The body was medium and shy with some green tannins poking out. Less fruit and more meaty, floral, and mineral notes. Med finish. #littorai #pinotnoir

Sublime layers of delicate red and black cherry, tea leaf, herbs, pomegranate, rhubarb, dash of pepper, all in an easy presentation of lower alcohol and higher acidity. Shining example of the current Sonoma Coast Pinot trends.
